Many thanks to Justin and Spark too!
Justin, appreciate that you dug up so many archived conversations. I
just read them all and did a bunch of preparation for tomorrow’s
open space – my first one.
Cheers,
Leslie

any advice?
Leslie,
Yoy seem to unserstand the spirit of OST. Your schedule looks
wonderful.
You might include 1 minute "Thank you for Coming. Do whatever is
necessary" coming from the Boss, only if necessary.
Stay being totally Present & absolutely Invisible.
The OS magic will be played by the group themselves. So just leave
them do it!
Bravo you
spark

Dear Leslie,
Since my first time facilitating Open Space was also for a small
group with just a few hours, and I also asked lots of questions on
OSLIST :), I just dug up those conversations in the archives for
your reference. If you feel like reading more, here you go:
I first asked about "Open Space for small groups" here:
http://lists.openspacetech.org/htdig.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org/2006-August/thread.html#17376
Coincidentally, someone else asked about "opening space for very
small groups" here:
http://lists.openspacetech.org/htdig.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org/2006-September/thread.html#17697
and reported on her experience here:
http://lists.openspacetech.org/htdig.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org/2006-October/thread.html#17808
And I asked more questions about "Robert's in the midst of Open
Space" here:
http://lists.openspacetech.org/htdig.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org/2006-November/thread.html#18016
and finally reported back about "My first time" here:
http://lists.openspacetech.org/htdig.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org/2006-November/thread.html#18025
Cheers,
Justin

Hello everyone,
I got such great feedback last time I tried this, I’m giving it a
second try… thanks in advance.
I have been asked to facilitate a small group of just 10 people in a
pilot test of a short Open Space of just two hours. I tried to get
more time, but that’s all the boss felt comfortable with.
It’s already scheduled for this coming Wednesday the 28th –
that’s in 6 days, gulp!
The purpose is to gather their input for an initial training needs
assessment.
The 10 people are all from the same division within my company –
but not my division. I will facilitate it – my first time
facilitating an Open Space.
The invitation to them and agenda I’ve drafted are below…. Any
reactions, words of advice, wisdom, tips, etc?
Invitation I plan to send to the invitees tomorrow…
What training matters to you? What is urgent now?
Come join us for a fun and provocative gathering on Wednesday,
December 28th 2:00 - 4:00 PM to discuss these questions.
Held in the large conference room – 7thfloor. No need to bring or
prepare anything – just yourself and an open mind!
By the end of this gathering….
· Every issue of concern to anybody will have been raised,
if they took responsibility for doing that.
· All issues will have received full discussion, to the
extent desired.
And just a day or two later, the issues and discussions will be
documented and in the hands of all participants.
And from here down is my own preparation…
Draft Schedule
2:00 - 2:30: Opening Circle / Create agenda / Marketplace (with 2
timeslots, 3 locations each)
2:30 - 3:00: Session 1
3:00 – 3:30: Session 2
3:30 - 4:00: Closing Circle
Preparations
Signs of:
· 4 principles,
· 1 law,
· two questions,
· time slots,
· location of groups
Graphics of:
· bumblebee,
· butterfly,
Supplies:
· Masking tape,
· markers,
· flip charts,
· construction paper (for the agenda topics),
· Blank template for notetakers: Title of session, Convener,
List of participants, Discussion and recommendations
